"I understand."

Yale already understood very well his situation, and he felt that he had great luck for having such an awesome grandfather.

"It is time for you to leave. I already told you everything I can tell, and your will had toughened enough to prevent having problems with any malicious shadow."

Although the Battle God wanted to help Yale more than he did, he also knew that he mustn't surpass the limits imposed to him.

"Thank you very much. I am really happy to have discovered that I have such an awesome grandfather. I will find you in the real world one day, I promise."

At the start, Yale was only interested in finding his original parents, but after meeting the Battle God, Yale also added him in his list.

"I also hope so. Remember, you need to turn stronger to meet with the real me. Due to my level being lower than others despite my huge strength it will be easier for you meeting me than any of your parents. Now, you shall go."

The Battle God pointed a direction while ending to say that and Yale followed it without saying anything else.

Since the Battle God had his own path that no one else followed, his influence towards fate was only a bit higher compared to that of a World God despite himself being able to kill Origin Gods.

After seeing Yale disappear in the direction he indicated, the Battle God sighed.

"I did as you ordered me. Although I also wanted to help him, following your restrictions isn't something I like, especially coming from someone who didn't want to reveal its identity. If it weren't because you told me that this was for Yale's sake and that you are the main consciousness of a Timeless Sovereign, I wouldn't have bothered to obey you."

When the Battle God spoke, he also sent a glare to a point on the darkness from where a person appeared from nowhere.

"Don't worry; I don't lie. This is definitely for Yale's sake. Moreover, I will fulfill my part of the deal and let your main body obtain your memories regarding Yale."

Yale's grandfather knew that only a Timeless Sovereign could do something like that to trespass the memories of a shadow to the main consciousness residing in the body that was in the real world, so when he obtained a request form a Timeless Sovereign, he didn't just accept without putting conditions.

Although he was planning to help Yale anyway, he wouldn't have needed to restrain his words so much, nor feign that he was disappointed after Yale's first attack.

"I believe that a Timeless Sovereign doesn't need to lie to a shadow like me in the Timeless Border. However, we have already collaborated, can you at least told me your real name, I don't like that nickname of yours. Calling you by the nickname 'Mysterious Expert' just feels strange. It seems like if I am inferior to you and I don't feel like that not even in front of the other Timeless Sovereign who have a close relationship with me, and I know very well his strength."

The Mysterious Expert laughed when hearing that.

"My real name is sealed. It isn't so strange, and even your grandson did it when he was a kid. It is quite a normal practice when one wants to hide something. Even you don't use your true name easily. As for not liking my nickname, you can call me in any way you like; it isn't like if I care about it. Besides the other Timeless Sovereign, only those weaklings who I can control easily know about my identity. Oh, I forgot that your grandson also knows about it, but the one who knows it isn't Yale's consciousness."

The Battle God didn't react to the Mysterious Expert's words because although he was curious about the other party's identity, as long the other party wasn't an enemy, he didn't have any necessity to know it.

Unknowing about the meeting of the Battle God and the Mysterious Expert, Yale continued moving across the darkness and followed any voices he heard.

However, that time he did it because since there was no way to maintain a proper direction while being in the Timeless Border without someone else serving as a guide, he felt that it was better just follow those voices.

Of course, a lot of them were broken shadows or shadows with bad intentions, but Yale had changed after meeting the Battle God.

Yale's mind reached a point that it was impossible for broken shadows or normal shadows to see through it; it was still easy for the Battle God, but he wasn't the shadow of a random person.

Moreover, since he was fully capable of battling in the Timeless Border with a prowess that had been acknowledged by his grandfather, those broken shadows and malicious shadows were just destroyed by Yale's attacks.

The act of destroying the shadows and broken shadows was useless because they would continue to exist and end reappearing, but at least they would suffer quite a bit, and Yale wouldn't need to bother with them anymore.

Of course, there were also shadows that didn't have any evil intention but didn't seem to have any relationship with Yale either. However, Yale still listened to them as everyone who reached that place had some story to tell.

Yale had lost the count of how many shadows had he met since he started to move, but they were a lot. From them, Yale noticed that not all the shadows were equal. Some of them seemed more alive than others, and the reactions and intelligence also differed greatly.

There were even shadows that were completely unable to move from where they were no matter how they tried. They vastly differed from the Battle God who could move freely to the point that didn't seem to have any restriction.

However, the truth was that being restrained was more normal, and only those with overly strong wills could have the freedom to act as they wanted.

Yale had already taken following the voices as a routine, but there was one that caught his attention, and he rushed to it with all his strength.

There was no way Yale could mistake the person in front of him since the grieve for being unable to save that person life was still hurting Yale.

"Master..."

Yale could only say that word when seeing a shadow that was undoubtedly that of Swordmad, who had died short time before Yale entered into the Timeless Border.

"It had been a long time, Yale. Or maybe not that long for you, this space is quite strange, and it is impossible to measure the time properly."

Yale noticed that Swordmad seemed to be of the strange group of shadows that have some freedom. Yale could already notice that just by hearing them speak a bit.

Of course, no one reached the level of freedom of the Battle God who seemed to be playing on his own house.

"Master, I am sorry! I was too weak and couldn't protect your life!"

Yale instantly kneeled in front of Swordmad while he remembered how he had been powerless in that situation to the point that he didn't even know if Swordmad's soul was safe or not.

"Stop with that."

Swordmad's voice startled Yale.

"I came here after being deeply injured in that battle, and it was here where I learned Life Ignition. I learned it to save you. You should already know that it is possible to see the fate in this place, and if I hadn't used Life Ignition, you would have used something similar sacrificing your life."

Yale was a bit startled when he heard Swordmad saying those words, but Yale remembered that he used a skill similar to Life Ignition in one of the Life and Death Trials.

Although that similar skill didn't kill the one who used it, it would destroy all the power of the user and turn that person into someone incapable of training anymore. Moreover, a ninety percent of the lifeforce would be consumed, so one would die shortly after that due to exhausting the lifespan.

In the war, Yale still didn't remember that skill, but he couldn't ensure that he wouldn't have remembered it at the critical moment and executed it without doubts.

"I sacrificed my life to save yours. Moreover, I already knew that you would end suffering and being dragged to the Timeless Border. I don't have any regret for what I did, and you shouldn't feel guilty due to it."

The shadow of Swordmad was created before Swordmad's sacrifice, but he had seen his own end through the Timeless Border.

"Knowing too much about the future is bad unless you are planning to sacrifice yourself on the spot after returning to the real world, but I can still tell you that your efforts worked, and my soul was saved from being destroyed. Thus, it is still possible for us to meet again and you shouldn't feel guilty for me."

Swordmad knew about Yale's personality and how much burden how had taken in his heart seeing his master dying without being able to do anything to prevent it.

"I swear that one day I will find your reincarnated soul."

Yale decided to accept Swordmad's death and focus into finding him again. As someone who experienced the Life and Death Trials, Yale already considered that as long the soul was the same, the person was also the same.
